Who We Are

The Pregnant Traveler began in 1998 as an outgrowth of a study of over 2,000 expatriates. This study highlighted numerous problems that are specific to pregnant women traveling and working overseas. Over the subsequent years, we have found practical solutions to many of these problems which can be applied to most pregnant traveling women. We make these solutions available in the form of books, pamphlets and on-line consultations. It is our hope that these will be of great use to you.
